Multiple rows created within an intake sheet with only 1 form submission

Lili6917

Using Smartsheet for QC sample submission. Some end users may have 10 different samples to submit- having to fill out the form 10 times is not an efficient use of time and there are many redundancies in each entry. Would be great for entry of one form fillable field to be able to have multiple lines of text that are then copied over into multiple entry lines within the intake sheet. Thanks for consideration!

I have one use scenario that external collaborator need to create multiple lines through intake forms. Now they need to repeat this process one by one, if they need to create 50 lines, they need to create intake forms 50 times. We need a new feature to create multiple line via a single form.

Hi @kccheng

I hope you're well and safe!

I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Can you post your solution here instead of people needing to email you to get the information? My work email is pretty locked down so that isn't really an option for me.
